Neighbourhood Alert: Lubowa



Located 10km away from Kampala and 8mins drive from Entebbe road is the quiet and rather elusive Lubowa neighbourhood. It's a quiet area littered with new apartments, estates and private residences. Its also home to two international schools; International School of Uganda and Galaxy and boasts of a growing number of expats.
